Our Core Training Programs
We offer excellent leadership & corporate training programs that are designed to boost the overall efficiency of your organization or institution. They are outlined below:
Transformational Leadership & Change Management
The strongest and most stable companies have strong leaders at every level of their organization. Research carried out by experts found that Organizations that were led always outperformed those that were managed and the concept of leadership holds that “the true test of leadership is change”.
However, it is practically impossible to initiate healthy and lasting change in any Organizational environment without a buy-in from the team. The only visions that take hold are shared visions and a leader can only create them when he listens to his people well, appreciates their hopes and attends to their needs.
Consequently, it is noteworthy to state that the best way to lead people into the future is to connect with them in the present. Hence, phenomenal change is not a one-man affair; it’s a team-affair because every member of the team wants to see his/her fingerprints on the win. That is where Transformational Leadership and Change Management comes in.

Leadership In Business
Entrepreneurial experts discovered that 90% of private businesses die within the first 5 years of their existence. Also, 99% die within 10 years; the next 9% largely due to the failure in the health of the owner. Effective leaders know when they need more hands in their businesses. Their ability to hire the right talent to meet the rising demands of their business moves the business and themselves to a whole new growth level.
However, John Maxwell (leadership guru) states that a person’s leadership ability places a lid on his level of effectiveness hence, businesses grow as their leaders grow. He states further that a person can only successfully lead those lower than his leadership level. Hence a leader cannot attract great talent if he is not great himself and this limits the effectiveness, quality and growth of the business.
Before becoming the success we aspire to be in our businesses, we must learn what brings meaning and purpose to our lives. Regardless of how much turnover our businesses generate, our leadership will be spotty and incoherent, unless it’s rooted in values. As Jeremie Kubicek, CEO of GiANT Impact put it, “I have always believed that the most important role of a leader in business is to liberate their employees and those they reach to increase their capacity to influence positively,” “When you help people grow, it is amazing what their organizations can do.”

This is a program on how every worker approaching retirement age must plan so as not to confront sobering economic problems in twilight years. The course shows that retiring from employment needs not become a calamity.
While the desire for a comfortable retirement is universal, an individual’s retirement planning will need to be personalized and with the world’s population of retired people set to increase three-fold to over 1.5 billion by 2050, it is important that the lessons learnt by today’s retirees are passed on to today’s retirement savers.

Enhancing PowerPoint Skills For Effective Pitch
Today, many large corporations and arms of government use PowerPoint as a way to brief employees on important issues that they must make decisions on. PowerPoint presentations are used in modern day learning, corporate training sessions, business and marketing meetings, and sales gatherings.
Top executives and managers of winning Organizations are aware of the risks of not communicating clearly during creative sessions or trainings. They use PowerPoint as a visual aid to enhance practicality, interaction, better decision-making ability, and lasting impact. The results most often affect and improve customer satisfaction and stakeholder’s shares.
However, the use of PowerPoint can be used to cripple rather than enhance a presentation if it is not well utilized. The objective of a presentation should be to convey ideas and support a speaker’s remarks in a concise manner to serve as a memory jog and not just a prop. In simple terms, it’s an ideas campaign and the secret behind a successful presentation outside of passion or content is making sure each slide reinforces the one key point for a given section of a presentation.
